Have you ever heard the mix of hang and French horn? The texture of authentic folklore and funk? All this and much more is the magic of the Karjala, chamber orchestra (Karelia).

The band plays original music in various styles: art rock, folklore, world music, ethno, funk, folk-rock, reggae, folk-punk, brit-pop — just to name a few. There is only one rule — the music shall bring love. It shall help people. Music is to embrace and warm people's hearts.

Songs’ lyrics are original, performed in different languages. Basically these are Russian and English. The band also works with Old Russian material, folklore records from Russian villages. When it comes to folklore, one can hear its authentic lyrics and regional dialect. All its mysticism is being preserved, and thanks to the modern arrangements it overwhelms the listeners.
